Don't mind the messiness, but once you accidentally get some on your finger-tips, and try frantically to get it off with your other fingers without thinking... well, it hurts

BWAHAHA! go on, spill, who was it . . . .

[Mrk_Mickey]

Haha dude we both got owned by the hot glue gun...that thing is brutal.

No ownage by the pink scissors though, not this time!

It looks great guys, definitely very striking. I went for something more subtle on my Mk3, but I wanted to do something nice with suede.

The black handles look trick too. Will there ever be any problems with them peeling, and do you get any residue/marks on your hands at all afterwards?

[Mrk_Mickey]

I think within time they might peel a bit. They feel and look great for now, so we'll wait and see

[DubSteve]

Your seat belt sliders will peel definately.

[Treza360]

Your seat belt sliders will peel definately.

I don't reckon they will. Well not if you don't constantly adjust them. I set mine to the lowest setting when I got my car and no one has touched them since. Maybe if you constantly played with them, they'd peel but what else would cause this to happen?
By the way looks awesome Mickey. Any other shots like where you can see the whole interior a bit better? Ie. The contrast between the seats and doors to the red?
Cheers,
Trent

Not just yet Trent, but when Ray and his magical camera + heaps mad sick skillz come around I'm sure we'll get them

Nope I never play with them and all I did was push them in to place. I will take some photos of my setup in the next few days.

What did you use to reblacken your bumpers/fenders?

Any product you would recommend.

Shoe polish

Kiwi Shoe Polish, to be exact. $3.99 from Woolies and the applicator pad that it comes with works fine. Just wipe it on generously and let it dry. I haven't done mine in many months now, and it still looks the same.

Ohk true, I actually used that this afternoon, but didn't put all that much on, it went on easily and shined up nicely, and I assume it won't come off in a wash, so cool I'll go and buy a new tin tomorrow, this stuff was from school-shoe-shining days

Oh it's not in a tin mate, it's in a weird shaped 15cm tall bottle.

Yeah Mal, FAQ ftw! lol
